Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in Caernarfon and Denbigh – Information

The visit will have struck a chord with 33-year-old William, who is a patron of homelessness charity Centrepoint.

While in the area, they will also visit Gisda’s catering training centre, known as Te a Cofi, which offers young people work experience and training opportunities.

The Duke asked: “What are you finding ar the major issues?”

Mental health is an issue that William and Kate have been championing for years.

Her three-year-old son, Theo Hayward, later presented a posy of flowers to the Duchess.

After completing her college course she is hoping to study social work at Bangor University later this year.

The Duchess told local Scout guides Cadi Evans, 12, and Molly Swann, 17, that she had “really enjoyed” her time helping out at a scout group on Anglesey when she and William lived on the island. They were given a few to take home.

The Duchess said: “George likes raisins”.

The couple were shown the kitchen as well as the Fan Sgram – takeaway van – Sgram being a Cofi word for food.

Kate and Prince William spent a portion of their visit overseeing a photography project run by the local branch of a mental health charity named Mind. The Welsh project, entitled “Mute: Are You Being Heard?”, has been created to give young people a voice to talk about the challenges of living with mental health problems.

MIND’s Ms Bailey said they had carried out a survey and while they found a lot of misinformation about mental health, people did not want to meet in traditional-type buildings.

“The duke and duchess have repeatedly focused global attention on mental wellbeing in recent months, echoing Mind’s ongoing determination to end the stigma that surrounds mental health problems”, said Sara Moseley, the director of Mind in Wales.

“It is our duty, as parents and as teachers, to give all children the space to build their emotional strength and provide a strong foundation for their future”, she continued.
